Step into an immersive group collaboration experience at the Discussions Lounge, where we'll divide into two teams to determine whether business or product development should take the initiative, tackling the age-old debate: what comes first, the chicken or the egg? We'll role-play as business and product teams and work to find common ground. We'll also learn to identify when developers should take the first step to bridge the gap between business development and product development. Through dynamic discussions and interactive problem solving, we'll explore effective strategies for fostering cross-team collaboration, aligning priorities, maintaining clear communication, and driving successful outcomes.
